A Switch Between Topological Domains Underlies HoxD Genes Collinearity in Mouse Limbs (ChIP-chip)

ABSTRACT: During limb development, Hoxd genes are transcribed in two waves: Early on, when the arm and forearm are specified and subsequently, when digits form. While the latter phase is controlled by enhancers centromeric to the HoxD cluster, we show here that the early phase requires enhancers located in the opposite telomeric gene desert. The transition between the two types of regulations involves a functional switch between two distinct topological domains, as reflected by a subset of genes mapping centrally into the cluster, which initially interact with the telomeric domain and subsequently shift to establish new contacts on the opposite side. This transition between two regulatory landscapes generates an intermediate area of low Hox dose developing into the wrist, the transition between our arms and our hands. This intriguing correspondence between genomic and morphological boundaries illustrates the mechanism underlying collinear Hox gene regulation in our developing appendages.

Chip-chip from Mouse E10.5 anterior and posterior immortalised limb cell lines and limb tissue for H3K27me3 antibody and from Mouse E10.5 anterior and posterior limb tissue for Ring1B antibody.

Project description:Anterior-posterior differences in H3K27me3 and Ring1B enrichment over the 5 prime Hoxd genes in E10.5 murine distal forelimbs. Chromatin immunoprecipitation (ChIP) of H3K27me3 together with Ring1B and by ChIP-on-chip analysis demonstrated that over the 5 prime HoxD locus H3K27me3 enrichment is decreased and Ring1B enrichment is sparse in limb cells derived from the distal posterior forelimb bud of E10.5 mouse embryos. Array design includes 2 biological replicates for H3K27me3 in the cell lines and Ring1B in the limb tissue, and 2 biological replicates and 2 dye swap replicates for H3K27me3 in the limb tissue.

Chromatin landscape at the HoxD locus in developing caeca (ChIP-chip)

Project description:Hox genes are required for the development of the intestinal caecum, a major organ of species eating plants. We have analysed the transcriptional regulation of Hoxd genes in caecal buds and show that they are controlled by a series of enhancers located in a gene desert telomeric to the HoxD cluster. The start site of two neighboring and opposite long non-coding RNAs, Hotdog and Twin of Hotdog, specifically transcribed in the caecum, contacts the expressed Hoxd genes in the framework of a topological domain, a large domain of interactions, which ensures a robust transcription of these genes during caecum budding. We show that hedgehogs have kept this regulatory potential despite the absence of caecum, suggesting that these enhancers are used in other developmental situations. In this context, we discuss some striking similarities between the caecum and the limb buds, suggesting the implementation of a common budding tool-kit. Distribution of histone marks and RNA Pol2 at the HoxD locus in caeca at E13.5, Array data were quantile normalized within ChIP/input replicate groups and scaled to medial feature intensity of 100 using TAS software (Affymetrix). For each genomic position, a data set was generated consisting of all (PM-MM) pairs mapping within a sliding window of 250 bp. For each tissue, two independent ChIP-chip experiments were performed with all mentionned antibodies.

For each genomic position, a data set was generated consisting of all (PM-MM) pairs mapping within a sliding window of 80 bp. For each tissue, two independent RNA extractions, cDNA synthesis and array hybridizations were performed, except for del(1-4i) and del(9-11) mutant caeca.

Clustering of tissue-specific sub-TADs accompanies the regulation of HoxA genes in developing limbs

Project description:HoxA genes exhibit central roles during development and causal mutations have been found in several human syndromes including limb malformation. Despite their importance, information on how these genes are regulated is lacking. Here, we report on the first identification of bona fide transcriptional enhancers controlling HoxA genes in developing limbs and show that these enhancers are grouped into distinct topological domains at the sub-megabase scale (sub-TADs). We provide evidence that target genes and regulatory elements physically interact with each other through contacts between sub-TADs rather than by the formation of discreet "DNA loops". Interestingly, there is no obvious relationship between the functional domains of the enhancers within the limb and how they are partitioned among the topological domains, suggesting that sub-TAD formation does not rely on enhancer activity. Moreover, we show that suppressing the transcriptional activity of enhancers does not abrogate their contacts with HoxA genes. Based on these data, we propose a model whereby chromatin architecture defines the functional landscapes of enhancers. From an evolutionary standpoint, our data points to the convergent evolution of HoxA and HoxD regulation in the fin-to-limb transition, one of the major morphological innovations in Vertebrates. The chromatin binding of the RNA polymerase II and the sub-unit Med12 of the Mediator complexe were analysed by ChIP-sequencing mouse distal E11.5 forelimb. This approach allowed us to identify the position of limb-specific enhancers.
